About: I've been a dedicated pet caregiver for 5 years, including 2 years caring for a senior dog in North Carolina - managing medication schedules and gentle exercise routines - plus ongoing care for my own cat at home. I also have experience training puppies on basic commands like sit, stay, and come, using positive reinforcement. I'm committed to attentive, compassionate care and treat every pet like family. Im flexible for now You can calls or text to fit a schedule also i can do overnight if you need . Please let me know :) As a pet caregiver, I offer both in-home pet care services for my clients' pets as well as care for my own pets at home. When caring for pets in my own home, I ensure that they have plenty of food and fresh water, clean litter boxes (if applicable), and comfortable bedding. I also provide daily playtime and exercise, as well as regular grooming to keep them looking and feeling their best. When providing care in my clients' homes, I follow their specific instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any other special needs their pets may have. I make sure to provide plenty of attention and affection to make the pets feel comfortable and happy in their own environment.
About: What will set me apart: My attention to detail and adherence to your instruction to the letter. I will additionally tidy, clean, and make coming home a pleasure! I’m technical savvy and love to send photos of happy angels while you travel! I simply want to treat you and yours the way I want my sitters to treat me and mine. I work full time for the FAA as a technical support specialist and have for the last 12 years. I telework 100% and make my own schedule. Pet sitting is a natural extention of my work day with tons of flexibility mixed in. LLet me know what you require and I'll make it happen. In my own environment, I have a good sized fenced in yard with a dog door. Hannah basically goes where she wants when she wants, except when I leave the house. She like to talk to the neighbors and needs a little help when she get super chatty. My sweet cat, Ponyo, naturally stays inside. She will venture out from time to time if the door is open but always comes back pretty quick. Lot's of fresh water around and meals are planned and controlled to avoid obesity.
About: I love animals! I am able to walk far distances and care for specific needs. I have a cat of my own and can drive to your house. I am currently working as a barista downtown and own a car. I am able to drive to your location no matter the day and feed/ care for your animal. I am not able to house pets at my own house but feel absolutely fine going to your location. I am able to spend overnights there as well.
About: Can I adventure with your best friend? We will go hike,run,bike, play and have a blast outside! Rain or shine! Let me tire out your pup in the Alaskan outdoors! I am located in Palmer in a cabin in the woods. I have an old golden retriever and a young husky that will keep your pup company. I work from home, so I can spend the whole day with your pup! Typically we would be going for a walk daily with lots of loves! I have access to a large private garden for fetch sessions. We will also go for hikes and adventures!
About: I HAVE BASE ACCESS TO JBER! I've been a lifelong dog enthusiast, growing up alongside my family's King Charles Cocker Spaniel and my grandparents' Yorkie. Currently, I am a dog mom to a handsome Border Collie, whom I adopted from a shelter when he was three months old. From the early days of potty training to fostering socialization and good manners, I've been deeply involved in every aspect of his life. My dedication to being the best dog mom led me to extensive research on dog health and training. In addition to my commitment to canine companionship, despite the demands of my work schedule, I've navigated the need for dog walkers and caretakers, giving me firsthand insight into the challenges pet owners face. Drawing from this experience, I assure you that your pup will receive the utmost care, and I'll keep you updated every step of the way. Both my canine companion and I are highly active—I'm a committed marathon runner, and now that my pup has the green light for longer runs, we share this activity regularly. For more energetic or running enthusiast dogs, I'm more than happy to do extended walks or jogs, ensuring they expend all their energy and remain content. With my Border Collie, I've explored puzzles and interactive games, accumulating a variety to provide mental stimulation. If your pup craves mental challenges, count on me to offer engaging activities. I also enjoy teaching dogs new tricks and would be thrilled to assist with your pup's training. Handling the grooming needs of my double-coated Border Collie has made me adept at the task. If your pup is grooming trained, I'm more than willing to take care of brushing and basic grooming. My caregiving extends beyond my own dog, as I've also cared for friends' large and older dogs, understanding the unique needs of those requiring extra downtime. I bring additional expertise to the table, having experience with giving medication, as my own pup has needed to take multiple medications in the past. I am currently working a job with weird days and hours and happy to walk or drop in at weird times during the week as long as I am not working. I am available for drop in visits and walks. I will follow all of your instructions perfectly and assure that your dog is as happy as can be. I am happy to do puzzles, go on long walks or runs, have snuggle sessions, work on training, make sure they have water and food, do any grooming you may wish, etc. with your pup during our hang out time.
About: I attended veterinary science at kcc for two years and continued on after that interning at clinics. CPR certified for pups & avid dog lady. Will love and care for your pups like they're my own. I am also well versed in dog allergic reactions and common diseases/infections & will alert you accordingly. I started my own dog walking/poop scooping business at 12 that I ran until I was 16 with over 10 returning clients! Caring for dogs has always felt like it’s what I’m supposed to do(: I work from home so I spend my days with my pup alternating between walks, car rides and work! I also have 2 cats who (as most cat lovers know) usually keep to themselves though I have seen them become affectionate with some dogs with calmer temperaments! My life revolves around these little critters and if you entrust me with your furry friend they will quickly become part of the pack and my life will revolve around them too while I have them! My home is a two story two bedroom home with a fenced yard and is fully doggie proofed/puppy proofed. I am a dog lady so I do allow dogs on my furniture and bed(unless I'm told otherwise by owners). I live about 5 minutes walking distance from a fenced dog park which I visit regularly and I take drives to Klatt field fenced in dog park regularly. I run a fairly lenient but still well kemp ship here, we all sit on the couch and hangout together and they’re all allowed on the bed at bedtime with me (unless I’m told otherwise). If a crate is needed I do have one kennel fit for an up to 80lbs dog that I keep in my downstairs room! If you’re inquiring about house sitting then consider me there! My husband and I both take care of our animals so if I am at your house, my animals won’t be an issue(:
About: I’ve taken care of pets for 15 years, housesitting, feeding and fostering newborn puppy litters as well. I’m very specific with the procedures that consist of taking care of your pet. I’m currently free and will meet with you and your pet(s) beforehand. Taking care of your animals is my number 1 priority, I’m very flexible with scheduling/extensions on dates already scheduled as I understand last minute changes come up! I stay with your pet in home so they are comfortable with their known environment. Any other requests to make them feel most at home while you’re away is always welcome. (Specific routines, blankets, treats, toys, etc.)

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Eagle River
We absolutely love Kim's kindness to our dogs! Our Malinois adapted quickly with her! We always been hesitant about anyone watching him but family. Tatanka usually shows quickly if he's not happy. He was full of wags and vocal to meet her. Hoonah is just a happy to see her too. We will be using Kim again! Thank you for the pictures and updates! Kim even told us if needed to extend our time due to traffic on the highway just let her know!
Logan is absolutely wonderful. She did a fantastic job with our pack! Leaving our dogs with Logan and knowing they would be well cared for allowed us to enjoy our vacation without worrying if the dogs were OK. Logan is professional, showed up during the time frame she said she would and communicated with me by text and photos after each visit. Logan is highly recommended!

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Eagle River choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
